Cute & Cheap: 5 summer shorts we can't survive without

Check these out, too...

  • Trends we heart: Americana
  • 6 handbags every girl should own
  • Exactly what to wear to your summer job interview
If you’re like us, you’re stoked for summer for one main reason: It’s finally shorts season! We’ve rounded up our fave shorties for you to spy, below. Want more? Check out the Cute & Cheap page in our June/July issue!

 

The daring knit

Nothing says sassy quite like these vivid shorts with a comfortable stretchy waistband. They are a stylish signature to any outfit: Pairing them with neutral tones lets them take the spotlight, but adding a royal blue necklace or contrasting cardigan will definitely make a statement.

 

 

Seashell Eyelet Shorts, $40, madewell.com

 

High-waist paradise

Bright and bold not your style? This pair channels the classics in cream and black. High waist shorts look great with a shirt tucked in or out. Try a cropped sweater or a sheer top with a tank under it to show them off!

 

 

Suit Yourself Beige Shorts, $38, lulus.com

 

The classic

These clean-lined denim shorts bring stylishly mismatched pieces together with ease, all while flattering your gams with wide pockets on the front and back. The combinations are endless with your basic cutoffs- they’ll tie anything together!

 

 
Denim Shorts, $20, hm.com

 

Funkytown

These striped shorts will blow their socks off! A solid top and simple slip-ons are the perfect background to show these babies off. Match with big gold jewelry for a totally fresh and head-turning look.

 
 
Desert Striped Cutoffs, $20, forever21.com

 

The girly-girl

These short shorts are feminine and light with calm shades of lavender and white. They’re perfect for a daytime date paired with a solid tee and pretty flats, but would look gorge dressed up with nude heels for a night on the town!

 

 

Rose Print Turn Cuff Short, $25, wetseal.com

I really like the first and fourth ones. But if I got both of them that would be $60!!!

My mom only buys me knee length shorts but everyone at my school has the short shorts on. I don't know how to ask her though cause she's always commenting on how short the girls shorts at my schools Please help!




Hey Girl--

Maybe you two can go shopping together and pick out a few pairs of shorter length shorts. You two can probably strike a compromise about the length-- not knee length but not short shorts.

best of luck
